Question 1

Can you race on ROUVY?

Accepted Answer

Yes. ROUVY racing lets you compete against riders from around the world on real-world routes, right from your indoor trainer. You can join single races or take on the ROUVY Racing Series – multi-stage competitions with overall standings.

Question 2

What do I need to race on ROUVY?

Accepted Answer

Requirements vary by race. Many ROUVY races welcome different setups, while others – including the ROUVY Racing Series – call for a smart trainer, so power is measured accurately and everyone competes on equal terms. You'll also need the ROUVY app and a subscription, and the rest is just your bike and your legs on real-world routes.

Question 3

When do ROUVY races take place?

Accepted Answer

ROUVY races run all year, from one-off races to full Racing Series rounds. You'll find the race schedule of upcoming virtual cycling events in the ROUVY app or on Riders Portal, so you can sign up for the ones that fit your week.

Question 4

How does ROUVY keep racing fair?

Accepted Answer

ROUVY runs an anti-cheat system in the background of every race. It continuously checks riding data – power, cadence and speed – against your own history and known human limits, and flags anything that doesn't add up. A flagged ride is disqualified from that event and kept off the leaderboard, so the standings reflect real effort on real-world routes.

Question 5

What is the ROUVY Racing Series?

Accepted Answer

The ROUVY Racing Series is a multi-stage competition that runs over several weeks. Each week brings one stage with multiple race opportunities, so you get several chances to set your best result. Your best result from each stage counts, and your top results across the series decide your final position in the overall standings.

Question 6

How does scoring work in a Racing Series?

Accepted Answer

Only your best result from each stage counts, and across the series your best few stages decide your overall position. For example, in a six-stage series where your best five count, you can ride all six, but only your five strongest results shape your final standing. You can follow results and overall standings throughout the series on the Gem City ICC platform.

Question 7

What can you win in a ROUVY Racing Series?

Accepted Answer

Every performance category has its own rewards. You earn ROUVY Coins and XP based on your final ranking in your category, with higher placements earning more. In team events, the winning team takes a special prize from the Virtual Garage.

Question 8

Do I need a subscription to race on ROUVY?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A ROUVY subscription gives you access to ROUVY races, the full Racing Series and every real-world route. You can start with a free 7-day trial.
